And given that AMC is a cable channel and not a broadcast channel, it is not regulated by the FCC and can air just as much profanity, violence, and nudity as subscription cable channels, like HBO and Showtime. But because AMC is on basic cable and run ads to make money, the people running the channel get too conservative about this stuff and won't air programs with profanity and nudity (but are perfectly fine with airing extreme violence).

Yes, because it's perfectly fine to show decapitations, disembowelments, people literally getting torn on half, torture, amputations, and come up with new ways to destroy human flesh on a weekly basis, but God forbid you say "fuck" or show nekkid people : rolleyes:. Our standards are so bizarre.

It is truly amazing just how much more impact the scene has in the uncensored version. AMC execs should have let this version air just for the extra power the scene gains.

FX is the only station that is really showing some balls when it comes to language and nudity. They get all the props in the world from me for not bleeping the "fuck" in that (now Emmy winning) episode of Louie. It would've totally ruined the scene.

Are the Netflix episodes, just released season 4, uncensored?
